But we don't know if New Super Mario Bros 2 will be the best selling game on 3ds. Even if it is, some games like Mario Kart which are already out and selling well do capitalize on the 3d. I think pokemon could also be a massive blockbuster if the integrate spotpass well enough. I get the points your argueing but I'm not quite sure why your defending Malstrom. His arguement boils down to that Nintendo has no idea what they are doing and not tailoring to the masses.
So if I'm understanding correctly your saying masses only care about games (which malstorm says nintendo doesn't make good games for the masses). Maybe i'm the minority (but I highly doubt it) but I got a 3ds beacuse I was excited about the thought of what 3d can do to make my games better. Just because the 3ds isn't having skyrocketing sales, but decent sales even with a lackluster game library doesn't mean people aren't excited about the 3d of the system. Which brings me back to my arguement that people are purchasing it on the current excitement of 3d. I'd be willing to say that the majority of games that will sell well on the system in the furue will be a direct result of the 3d features Nintendo implements in the game itself.

We do know that NSMB2 wil be the bestselling game on the 3DS by October 31st 2012. At that point it will have overtaken Super Mario 3D Land and Mario Kart 7 to claim the #1 spot and from there on out it will only extend its lead. Once this is proven to be true, it will be a fact that Nintendo really had no idea what they were doing with the 3DS, because they didn't release NSMB2 sooner (which would have helped 3DS sales tremendously). It will also be proof that stereoscopic 3D doesn't matter.

October 31st? Definitely not. I believe the game is coming out in August. Even IF the game came out on August first, that would leave it 3 months to sell at the very least 5.9 million copies. That's assuming 3D Land, which sold around 47k last week, came to a dead stop and didn't sell another copy until October 31st. The only way NSMB 2 would reach that goal is if it were being released over the holidays.
